EVOLUTION OF APUHF
•
In May, 2008 the World Bank initiated a dialogue (GDLN) between
countries of South Asia to address issues of housing and housing
finance.
•
In May 2009 the World Bank organized a regional housing conference in
Jakarta, Indonesia.
•
To better understand the issues and underlying challenges, the World
Bank also initiated a study on housing in South Asia titled “Expanding
Housing Finance to the Underserved in South Asia”, published in 2010
published in 2010.
•
At the Jakarta Conference, based on its findings/recommendations, a
proposal to set up a more permanent regional platform in the name of
“South Asia Housing Forum-SAHF” was tabled.
•
The proposal was fully endorsed by the conference participants and the
multilateral agencies like the World Bank, IFC, and Asian Development
Bank.

Around the same time UNESCAP and UNHABITAT had launched an
initiative on Pro-Poor Housing in Asia-Pacific region.

Finance in Asia-Pacific-A Compendium of Seven Countries” was
launched In January 2010.

line with the objectives of SAHF.
•
In a joint meeting of the two initiatives held in Delhi in January, 2010 it
was decided to merge the two initiatives, expand its scope to Asia-Pacific
region and rename it as “ Asia-Pacific Union for Housing FinanceAPUHF.”.

A REGIONAL SNAPSHOT
• Asia-Pacific represents one-quarter of the World
population,
• Nearly half of the World Poor
• Housing is an essential part of political sloganism, like:
“Housing for all”, “Slums Free Cities”, “Maang Raha hai har
Insaan-Roti, Kapra, aur Makan and so on……”
• In some countries delivery is SOME, and in most it is NONE
• Each country in the region has its own geo-socio-economic
parameters. From Afghanistan to Indonesia, all facing a
common issue of “shelter less poor”, and an under
developed housing finance system and the housing sector.
so regional successful models would be needing sharing of
experience and knowledge.

HOUSING CHALLENGES IN ASIA-PACIFIC REGION
• The Region represents more than one out of four persons
and one out of two poor on the planet.
• Including China, Asia-Pacific represents one out every two
persons on the planet
• It is among the lowest in terms of Mortgage Finance
• (Average Mortgage Debt to GDP Ratio 3.3)

POPULATION EXPLOSION IN ASIAN CITIES
•
In 1950, about 232 million people lived in urban areas, which
represented about 17% of Asia’s total population. Today it is more than
one-third and by 2025 nearly half of Asian Population will be Urban
•
This means that by 2030, one out of every two urban residents in the
world will be in Asia
•
In India, as per census 2001, the total housing stock was 249 million
units out of which 29% (72 million) were in urban areas. India today
faces an Urban housing shortage of 25 million units. Pakistan around 3
million.
•
Nearly entire Urban Housing Shortage is in Economically Weaker
Sections of society
India, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippine, Malaysia, Pakistan , Turkey and more
from the region have unique success stories in different areas and regional
countries could benefit from knowledge and experience sharing.

WHERE THE URBAN POOR LIVE
• Hiding behind higher persons/room density, and living in slums.
In some cases homeless poor live on footpaths, and even in
abandoned sewerage pipes
• Slums, Shanty Towns, Jhopar Patti, Jhuggi, Basti, Katchi Abadi,
Squatter Settlements, legal/illegal habitat, and you name it
• Nearly 50% of major metropolitans in the regions are slums

Two prong approach would be needed
•
Slums improvement programs and
•
Slums rehabilitation programs
